Geekdom Madness: Miscellaneous Left

It's the penultimate preliminary.

This week's match-up: The Candy-Hearted Rag Dolly vs the Bloodthirsty Count






Let's meet the combatants:

RAGGEDY ANN

A rag doll who belongs to a little girl named Marcella. She has many adventures with her brother Andy and various other toys in the nursery, and always with a positive attitude.

Pros

* Is extremely sweet (candy heart, after all)

* Is very accepting and forgiving

* Surprisingly proactive

Cons

* Very little physical strength

* Kind of creepy face

* Sometimes appears a little TOO close to her brother

COUNT DRACULA

A Romanian nobleman, suspected to either be or be connected to Vlad Tepes (pictured), renounced his faith for unknown reasons and gained the powers of darkness, turning into a vampire. After silently terrorizing nearby Carpathian villages for centuries, he invites some real-estate brokers from London to help him get a change of scenery...

Pros

* Has great physical strength

* Can enthrall the unsuspecting

* Has shapeshifting abilities

Cons

* Requires human blood to survive, and thus regards others as merely a food source

* Not overly fond of religious artifacts

* While he can move about during the day, it is not his natural time and his powers are weakened

Final Thoughts

Hmm, a girl's toy against a vampire. If I didn't know any better, I'd say they were just standing in for two OTHER massively popular franchises with a haterbase as big as their fanbases, neither of which I am familiar enough with to feel comfortable including on this list. But of course I actually do know better than that....right?....RIGHT?!
